The drama between Caroline Manzo and Brandi Glanville is heating up.
Of course, the former RHONJ star recently filed a lawsuit against both Bravo and Peacock that accused Brandi of sexually harassing her during the filming of Real Housewives Ultimate Girls Trip. Now, Brandi is responding to the lawsuit.
As fans know, this has been an ongoing issue between the two. It even resulted in both Brandi and Caroline going home early from the trip. Now, it seems this season of RHUGT will probably never see the light of day. However, people like Phaedra have defended the former RHOBH star and said that Caroline’s accusations are untrue.
According to Page Six, a representative for Brandi had this to say, “Sadly, Brandi had to wake up to yet another lawsuit that includes defamatory, false accusations about her.”
The rep continued, “While filming, Brandi followed what the producers asked of her, and there was no sexual assault. She is innocent of these absurd accusations that have weighed on her mental and physical health for far too long without a word of support from Peacock, Shed, or Bravo.”
They added, “This painful storytelling seems endless and needs to stop. She is looking to move on and upward and get her life back.”
However, Caroline’s lawsuit says that Brandi not only kissed her without her consent but that she “[mounted] Manzo on the couch holding Manzo down with her body, forcibly squeezed Manzo’s cheeks together and thrust her tongue in Manzo’s mouth, while humping her.”
The lawsuit blames Bravo and claims, “Defendants, including Bravo, regularly ply the ‘Real Housewives’ cast with alcohol, which causes them to become severely intoxicated and then direct, encourage and/or allow them to sexually harass other cast members because that is good for ratings.”
Brandi seemingly responded directly by implying that she’s so stressed that she “can’t sleep.”
Can’t sleep :/

It’s clear that this issue will continue, but perhaps Bravo and Peacock will settle out of court. However, it seems unlikely they will allow the season to see the light of day unless they somehow feel it will disprove what Caroline said.
